    Deviled Eggs

    Decided to stop by here for a quick drink before our dinner reservation, and I'm glad we did! It's a super cute little bar with cozy seating and small plates. I loved the interior design--such a nice atmosphere to hang out in. I went with the deviled eggs and a Shackbury cider, and both were delicious. If you're ever in the area, definitely check this spot out!

    I'm obsessed! Finally checked out Low Key, and I can already tell it's going to be one of my favorite cocktail spots in town. The vibe is exactly as advertised -- super laid-back, but the cocktails are anything but low-key. They're fantastic! We tried two of their signature cocktails, and both were impressive. What I really appreciated was the size -- not tiny at all, so I could enjoy my drink and chat without feeling like I needed to order three more just to keep up. The ambiance inside is perfect -- dimly lit with chill background music that sets a speakeasy vibe. It's such a great spot for a pre- or post-dinner drink. Plus, the service was spot on -- the bartender/waitress checked on us multiple times throughout the night. I can't wait to go back!

    Sister bar to Jing Yan Tavern across the street and the new addition to Munjoy Hill. No need to explain too much since Jing Yan's drink programs super solid and that's what Low Key exactly is. There's nothing low key about the quality of the drinks here. Excellent ! Small intimate place, come early since it's first serve first come basis. Service is very quick even though there's only 1 bartender made the drink. They have quite some apps/snacks/sandwiches to order. I ordered the Reuben panini with side cucumber salad that's very refreshing. Super delicious, generous with the portion and very good corned beef. For drinks I ordered 2 different drinks : the pick-me-up and low key from their signature cocktails. Completely polar opposite to each other. Pick-me-up is mezcal base, citrusy and refreshing while low key base is rum with milk, blueberry purse that taste deserty. Couldn't be more happier

    Went to this new spot for a couple drinks and loved it! The outside of the building is very welcoming and has a great look to it. And the inside is perfect for some intimate and relaxing drinks. It's a little dark but that added to it. And the service was great and fast. Everyone there is very nice! The drinks were also very tasty. The selection is limited on their menu but that didn't matter. We got the low key and the espresso martini. Both of the flavors worked very well and I would love to go back to try out some of their other cocktails. I recommend coming here to have a relaxing evening or date. Low key is a perfect name for this place. Definitely give it a try

    We stopped here for late night drinks on a weekend trip recently. This cozy little spot was a perfect stop. Service was prompt and very helpful. We got the espresso martini and one of the mocktails, both drinks were delicious.

    Great tapas spot in the downtown area! Had such a lovely waiter too during our visit. Liked all the…read moresavory dishes too, each with its own distinct taste! Ranking: 1) Spicy beef salad 2) Suckling pig 3) Pinkytoe crab 4) Lobster pasta 5) Bone marrow toast The desserts were nothing special but I did like the strawberry white chocolate one. The rhubarb one was meh personally; tasted like yogurt I could eat from the grocery store.

    We were happy with the service and speed at which the small plates were delivered to us however…read morethere was a small instance where we got a dish we didn't order (not pictured and it was the special). The lemon sole (fish) and octopus carpaccio (not pictured) were filled with flavor! The pork belly was very underwhelming and I would not order again. The waiter said 2-4 plates per person. I recommend starting on the lower end and adding additional dishes based on how you're feeling. The amount of food was very different from dish to dish. For example the tuna dip had way too much bread and the pork belly was very small in size. Overall I was half impressed. I wish the staff would take a moment to announce the plate as it's placed next to you or point it out on the menu for those hard of hearing and wanting to know what they are about to enjoy. However the music, overall restaurant vibe and half the dishes exploding with flavor made my experience pleasant and I will return again knowing a bit more of what to expect and looking at photos of the menu/meal options beforehand.
